I have 2 felony counts, and received my licensure from the state of California, and recently was licensed in Arkansas. These convictions dated back to 1984, and I have had no problems since then. I've been a nurse for almost 10 years now. Your goal can be reached. You can demonstrate this to the board by excelling in your nursing courses. FYI: Sexual abuse, battery, assault, the board will frown on. Check with your board. I wish the best for you..........Peace.
